So i got this guy just under a week ago and hes only about an inch. I saw him at a LFS and i knew i had to have him. He is eating chingmix, other pellets, prawn (treat), bloodworms, and when hes bigger maybe a meal worm or 2.... Can anyone tell me what type of flowerhorn he is???

It's a kamfa. Similar to one of mine which has white eyes. Love the pearls on this guy. Looks much bigger than an inch with size of that hump. Nice!

Cowis's fish won't have a huge kok. It will be fairy decent, but nothing too big. I don't think yours will get a big water kok, but time will tell.
 
He's nice. At 1 inch you never know what he'll turn out like. When I look for a fish that may develop a big kok I look at that spot right where the dorsal fin starts. The bump should be rising from there.
 
Definitely doesn't look completely kamfa, maybe mix with zz. Lower lip looks to be protruding and not smooth.
